Has anyone find overclocked(ranging from a slight 5 mhz to XXX mhz) system stable as any of those stock non overclocked system ? Or is it impossible...(running the computer 24hour/7days/4weeks/12months without closing)

OC can void warranty. Is it still void if the system is still functioning as normal and restored to default? (they can check you pump higher voltage before a?)

Just OC with tweaking core voltage but still below the stated " max = 1.4v " on the box. Is it not allowed?

I created this topic coz i couldn't find answers to my questions. Kindly delete this topic if any find it meaningless..

1. If you know how and do it right, the overclocked speed is stable and perform just as good. You need to stress test before concluding it is stable which many people doesn't do but instead post up a Super PI screenshot.

2. Many things can void the warranty but from my years of experience, I've never had problems claiming warranty despite overclocking. I doubt Intel or AMD would check each CPU one by one while RMA-ing.

3. You can do anything you want and some people can put in 1.5V as well (like me).

4. I'm not sure if it's meaningless but I hope I clear your doubts.

Thanks
i intend to oc my pentium d 805 to 3.2ghz..(heard that its highly overclockable) using stock cooling with 10% metal oxide compound
just to prevent graphic card from having bottleneck...
If oc ady play halfway hang or blue screen.. lol..whats the purpose.. haha
The box write max = 1.4 v Ooo..
1.5 with stock fan+heatsink can a?

pentium D rite???

if u want to oc... i advise as friend , change ur heatsink to better 3rd party heatsink....

pentium D is veery hot....

i now at 39 C. 2812rpm
i tried prime95.(12 hour) max at 43 C. 35xx rpm

i only oc until around 3.0 to 3.2... need change heat sink a?..
if dowan how?..
whats the max temperature should it be for stability..?
i have seen some listing that said max cover temp = 63 C
it will reach that high a?

1. yala =_= then later on they complain that the pc is unstable =___="

3. Well, thats why i said before mar... my theory is that, for the e2140, intel will still accept RMA for up to 1.55v ... still a theory la.. no one to prove it right yet


@TS
wa.. pentium D... smithfield.... urmmm.. better get a 3rd party cooler before touching those volts LoL

Whether you need to change your HSF or not would be based on a few factors. If your load temp is 43C and considering you are not intending to overclock insanely, you don't really have to change the HSF.

can over clocked system go back to default or is it a no turning back..

if your oc clock touch about 58'c and above , so beter change ur heatsink to better one...

Of course it can be set to default back if required.

any1 use before p5rd2-vm for oc?...
is the pci and agp bus already locked or have to change it manually..
Cannot find the configuration for that...

Yeah, that's why nice people around like you would have to help people with unstable overclocked PC's
I just got my IFX-14 and plan to run 1.5V at least but I think I need better RAM's

So Pentium d generates alot of heat?..
I just overclocked it
proc=2660 -> 3200
ram = 533 -> 610(havent changed)
rpm = 2934
voltage core = 1.14v - 1.205v
TEMP = 43°C - 44°C
(FULL LOAD)


from toms hardware review.. their proc at
3.32 GHz
full load = crash
idle = 57 °C

is there something wrong with mine?

and my motherboard supports maximum ram speed is 667
can i oc it more than that? will crash?

When you overclock, you'll have to add in more voltage eventually. With that, it produces heat and heat is the common enemy when it comes to overclocking.

If your load temp is 44C then I'd say its fine. I'm using IFX-14 and my load can go upto 60C-62C running Orthos.

i wish i could... lol..it looks like my motherboard dun have that function...
is there any 3party program can change it permanently on the bios?

and can i max up the memory clock over the limit of my motherboard?

what you really need to read is the fundamental of overclocking (pinned topic)

and to add to that, well fundamentals of your computer and the behaviorial science of your processor for ex, temp loads, TDP etc.. is crucial too.
